This post is an update of my original post on the Christy sugar bowl, which can be found here. I wasn’t even aware that you could get one of these in purple, but when I saw it on eBay recently, I had to add it to my collection! I’ll update my original post on the Christy bowl to show the purple one as well.

Here is the purple bowl.

Here is a scan of one of the zoomorphic legs of the bowl. Only one of the three has the Alessi Italy marking, and contrast makes it very difficult to capture.
